Our Prophet


Here is a summary of the birth of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)


Muhammad(PBUH) was born in Makkah, Arabia, on Monday,12 Rabi Al Awwal
His mother, Aminah was the daughter of Wahhab ibn Abdul Manaf of the Zahrah family
. His father,Abdullah, was the son of Abdul-Muttalib. His genealogy has been traced to
be the noble house of Isma'il(PBUH), the son of Ibraheem (Abraham) (PBUH) in
about the fortieth descent.

Muhammad's father had died before his birth and his mother died when
he was about six years old making him an orphan.

In accordance with the tradition of noble families of Makkah, he was taken
by foster mother, Halimah, to her village where he lived for a few years. During these
years he was taken to Makkah several times to visit his mother.After the death of his mother
,he was placed under the custody of his grandfather, Abdul-Muttalib. When the grandfather
died, he was under the care of his uncle, AbuTalib. By this time he used to look after sheep around Makkah and used to accompany his uncle on trade journeys to Syria




The Coming of the Most Noble Messenger

With eyes as bright as the shining sun, a reality on the lips more brilliant
than the light of the sun, a heart more fresh than the flowers of the gardens of Yathrib
and Taif, habits and morals more decent than the moon- lit nights of the Hijaz



Allah's Messenger to the Whole Mankind

Prophet Muhammad ® (Salallahu ‘alayhi wa salam, meaning: May the
peace and blessings of Allah I be upon him) was Allâh's great Prophet and Messenger
like Jesus, the Son of Mary. The Prophet's mission, however, is universal. Allâh (I)
(Subhanahu wa ta’ala, meaning: the Exalted, Most Glorious) tells mankind that
Prophet Muhammad ® is no more than a Messenger





Legacy of a Prophet

Fourteen hundred years ago, a humble merchant who could not read or

of the world including the United States



The Best of Creation

The life of the Prophet (Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon Him) has
